Very frustrating (on my iPhone)
I have done it at long flaming last.... it has drove me bonkers for days.......
just follow these instructions
Removing iCloud account via www.icloud.com
1.Device must be switched OFF*
2.Log into www.icloud.com with your Apple ID and password
3.Select ‘Find My iPhone’
4.Select your iPhone from ‘All Devices’ drop down (top, centre of screen)
5.Device should show as OFFLINE
6.Select ‘Remove from Account’
7.Select ‘Remove on confirmation message’
*Your iPhone must be switched off so it shows as ‘Offline’, otherwise the option to ‘Remove from Account’ will not appear.
If you have recently switched your iPhone off, you may have to wait a few minutes for it to show as ‘Offline’.
But remember when you turn the phone back on it will ask to set
for new iphone,
set from icloud
or set from iTunes
please please please be advised to set as NEW iPHONE....the only one that works.
and whal...lah

it working..................
good luck to all
